According to Hindu/Vedic mythology Indra's(the Sky God) wife, Indrani is mainly known for her beauty and wrath/rage. Funny enough these are what Sakura is known for and has been known for since the series began. Of course I doubt Kishi even noticed this but it's really a funny little coincidence when you think about it.
According to Kishi in DB 2 I believe, Iruka and Team 7 were created first (Sakura was created around the same time as sasuke) so Sakura was the first female to have these traits in the manga and the only female to be associated with Sasuke as his love interest/wife so Tsunade and Kushina are not applicable in case any smart ass was going to bring them up.
Another funny little coincidence is that the alternative name for Indra is Sakra and it is actually pronounced like the Japanese pronunciation of Sakura.
Note: I am not reaching because this isn't proof of anything. Just little coincidences I pointed out.
